i purchase a 3 YLOD ps3 Fat (NO HDD INCLUDE) so ask the seller if he knows the OFW of the 3 ps3 so he said he didn't know. I buy it and reflow it then success but there's a problem i installed a new hdd on 1 ps3 i repaired it telling me to update the ps3 on 3.66 or later, so i tried to update the ps3 via recovery. i downloaded 3.55 wondering if it working, but not i get this error code:

data corrupted error code 8002F2C5 means the ps3 is not in 3.55 fw?

please help?

this MinVerChk can run on recovery?
 
According to the PS3 Error Codes List:

Update error 0x8002F2C5 - Error with installing Firmware update. The PUP is not recognised as valid update. (Can be generated by pulling the storage device with the PUP when it is still in checking stage. DANGEROUS!). Or when trying to install MinVerCheck.PUP immediately after an hdd replacement in PS3 models with a NOR flash.

What model number is the repaired fat PS3 console that is giving you the error when trying to update.. like CECHxxx ?

i can't give it the right model because im at work right now, i double the 3.55 OFW and its okay according to the other forum , and im not pulling out my usb during update

if the ps3 said 3.66 or later so my ps3 it is not in 3.55 or below?
 
Gotcha, yes above 3.55 OFW means you would need a hardware flasher to downgrade.. unless it was a 3K/4K (not your case as yours is a fat PS3) then you would need an ODE.

sorry to ask what is ODE?

its ok now i google it. Last question if i re update the said ps3 on a fully checked OFW 3.55 and it requires a 3.66 or later what is the possible error code?
 
If console is asking for 3.66 means it's on OFW/CFW that is 3.66 minimum that is from what I could gather from your first post , now to go to 3.55 you need :

1. if u r on CFW then u need 999downgrader cfw.
2. if u r on OFW then u need hardware flasher.

I don't remember having cfw 3.66, was 3.55 and later from what I recall 4.xx , but I could be wrong on this ;)

Suggestion try install CFW that is 4.xx if it will go console was on CFW if it will bring error code is on OFW simple ;) to be sure try few lets say ferrox, rebug, rogero.

tnx for replying

another question, i moved on the ps3 we talking about (because nor cfw rogero or ferrox it will give me a error code) and fix the next ps3 now on my current working ps3 its in rogero 4.55 1.00 because of the opening screen WOW :D but the problem is the fan wont speed up even my ps3 is in overheating. i found out it cannot speed up. now im trying to install fan utility via packaged installer now its blank on picture tab i found my usb but on game and install package file i cannot see anything
 
Perhaps thermistor is damaged , how would u know if if it's overheating ? what are the temps? maybe some PCB traces are damaged.
 
Have you try swapping fan ? Ps3 schematics were floating over internet some time ago, perhaps you can back trace fan on PCB .
